When does 'Only Murders in the Building' Season 3 come out? Release date, cast, trailer

This story contains spoilers for Season 2 of "Only Murders in the Building."

Everyone's favorite crime-solving trio from the Arconia is almost back!

"Only Murders in the Building" returns for Season 3 with even more star power – as if its core cast of Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez wasn't enough.

Season 2 ended with the gang discovering that Cinda's assistant, Poppy, was really Becky Butler and that she killed Bunny. Her plan was to become famous by "solving" the murder and launching a podcast with her accomplice and lover, Detective Kreps.

The end of the Season 2 finale jumped forward a year and sets up the events of Season 3.

What will Season 3 of the show have in store for fans?

"Season 1 was really centered around a Mabel story, and then Charles and his father emotionally led Season 2 in many ways, so it feels right to lean into Oliver a bit more and his dream of a potential comeback," show creator John Hoffman told Entertainment Weekly in August 2022.
